Domain Registration Information
There are some things you may or may not know about registering
a Domain, which perhaps you should.
Domain Registration Information
Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers - ICANN is responsible for the globally coordinating the system of unique identifiers for the entire Internet. Computers and other devices which access the Internet use these identifiers to reach each other via the Internet.
ICANN requires valid contact information for every Domain registration including registrant, technical, billing, and administrative. Falsifying Domain registration information can lead to the cancellation of the registration. If you are concerned about your privacy, most registrars offer a WhoIs privacy protection.Realize, you are not the owner of the Domain...But rather the registrant. It is basically leased to you. No one "owns" Domains. There are accredited registrars and some that aren't. It really does not matter unless you have a problem.
